The Simple answer is yes the piston its the valves and possibly damage the pistons
It is about 50% possible for the valves to hit the head on a Neon. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
Yes and no, if the car jumps timing you could damage the head by bending a valve, but if you jump timing bad enough, the valve could scar the top of the cylinder head and that's a very very expensive fix, A.K.A. new engine, but to answer your question short and sweet, oh yeah, you will have exstensive engine damage. Hope I helped
Timing belt. Honda Man The 2.4 is a Mitsubishi engine and it has two timing belts (one main belt and a balance shaft belt). It should be changed every 60,000 miles. It is an inteference engine which means there can be valve damage if the belt breaks.
Yes, if the timing chain breaks a valve will hit a piston, causing significant internal damage. The good news is, the timing chain seldom breaks. The bad news is, if YOURS was one of the few that did break, the engine is toast.
This is an interference engine. The valves normall collide with the pistons when the belt breaks. Damage is usually bent valves, and sometimes broken valve guides also
Yes, it can bend valves when a timing belt breaks.
If it breaks while the engine is runnIng, yes. It can damage the valve train
Variable valve timing.
The engine stops running. In most cases it also causes expensive to repair valve damage and on some high performance engines piston and rod damage.
Damage is only done if the motor is an "interference" design. ie the valves and the pistons overlap in the same place, only kept from colliding by the timing chain. When the timing chain breaks on a interference design, valves and pistons smash together. If it's not an interference design, the pistons and valve won't come into contact if the timing chain breaks, so odds are no internal damage done.
The timing belt itself can not hit the valve unless you put it inside the intake manifold. If the belt breaks on a 2.0L it will almost always bend valves. The 2.4L and 2.5L very seldom bend valves.
